BC or BCV?

[Mary Diehl]

Was wondering if our family should stay at the BC or the BCV for the first three days of our vacation. We'll be staying at the CR for 4 days and then the AKV for four days(buying points from a friend). Which room is nicer:BC or BCV? I heard the BC rooms are being refurbished. Are the BCV updated at all?

Depends what you are looking for if i had a choice between a regualr room or studio at BCV, I would take the regular room.Now if i was choosing between a regular room or a 1bdr villa, I would go with the villa.To me the studio doesn't seem all that worth it, but to other people it is.As far as renovations, BC is just starting theirs( some of the rooms are done) BCV from what i understand doesn't really do a big renovation.They refurbish rooms as needed.

We have five people in our party so I don't think we'd fit in a studio. We stayed at the BC in 2006 and got a first floor room looking out into the boardwalk. We loved the location and all the wildlife that frequented our patio. The only thing was our room was in need of some changes. Floor in closet was soaked and overall the room just looked like it was ready for a refurbishment. Now that I hear they are redoing the rooms, I'm thinking of staying in a water view room in lieu of the villas. If we stay in the villas, we'd have to rent more points from our friends too. Although, it would be cheaper to rent points than pay rack rate for a regular room. Anyone know if there are normally any AP discounts out for the month of August? We plan on taking this vacation next August. Thank you everyone for your help!
